Davinson Sanchez was dismissed for raising an elbow to the face of Richarlison

Davinson Sanchez did not mean to elbow Richarlison in the face during Tottenham’s Premier League draw at Watford, according to Spurs manager Mauricio Pochettino.

Sanchez, the Colombia central defender, was dismissed early in the second half of the 1-1 draw at Vicarage Road for blocking Richarlison off as he attempted to break, with speed, down the left flank.
